Is it ethical to profit from selling user data and information?

Existing Quran Wisdom answer. No named author or scholarly review is recorded here. Check references and seek qualified advice for a personal ruling.

Islam requires informed consent and fairness in transactions. Selling user data without clear, honest disclosure is deceptive and haram. If users genuinely understand and consent to data sharing in exchange for services, and the data isn't used for harm, it may be permissible. Transparency, honesty, and protecting people from harm are paramount.
